👨🏻🔧⚠️🫣Two popped tires, a skid steer repair, planter repairs and a tractor repairs and the two biggest spring jobs on the farm - 1st crop hay and planting corn! Just another Memorial Day weekend for farmers like us! 🌽🚜
Between the breakdowns, milking cows, setting up pastures and normal chores and life, we worked ground, planted corn, cut 1st crop hay, raked, baled and wrapped it, until the sun disappeared behind the fields.
It’s the kind of weekend that leaves every machine dusty and every hour accounted for. We ended the weekend the best way we know how — steaks on the grill, celebrating our daughters birthday and a little tired but a quiet family meal outside while the last light faded over the farm, was perfection! 🌅 🍉🥛🥩🍽️
